Months 11 &12:
December-January 2013
Crackers. It's not going well. I broke down and picked up the new pain medicine from the pharmacy. I'm not looking forward to it, but maybe it will make these gnarly headaches go away. What concerns me is that I'm supposed to take it twice a day instead of as needed. I'm going to try it, but I really don't know how that is going to go. I will let you know.

Officially off the Gerson Therapy. I'm going to take the nasal allergy spray, the migraine headache meds daily and sumatriptan as needed and then metformin to help with the insulin resistance. Going from natural, holistic to chemicals was a tough decision, but I simply cannot do the therapy in full on my own. So, instead of mixing both and getting nowhere, I think I'm going to go what feels right right now...medicine it is. I really hope this works. Getting used to the medicine and chemicals as my body adjusts has been very hard on me and has caused a lot of concern. I think I had a heart attack the night before last. It was awful and just as I was about to call 911 to come get me I threw up and it all stopped. Anyway, that's the update. Trying new medicine with these new doctors and am praying it goes well.

I've had some relief the last couple of days. The foot pain came and went. I think I will continue on this treatment plan as long as I am able. Unfortunately, after a couple of nearly amazing days and lots of energy (I couldn't hardly sleep...normal, this happens on occasion since I got sick).
Anyway, I want you to know that I feel like I'm just tired of taking the time to write this out. I'm tired of complaining and this year I want to try and focus on the positive. With that being said, I'm sick but surviving and I will no longer be writing a blog about it. I will still be juicing and it turns out that the green juice tastes amazing without the added Gerson Therapy supplements and whatnot. I kind of like juicing. I will continue to try to have less processed foods, lower salt intake and pay attention to my body when it's telling me something.
For those of you who have been supportive, I want to say thank you. It meant a lot to me that you were there for me. This is my life and I'm going to do my best to have a better attitude and appreciate the great things in life...like that I have one. This year has taught me that I'm not the same as I used to be and that I need to just roll with it. Have an open mind, try to learn my new self, my new abilities and restrictions and just go with it.
